the government of israel. even though the israeli prime ministers has been asking washington to draw a red line, israel has not drawn a red line itself. i would argue, they are right not to draw a red line. you want to keep the other guy guessing. you want to keep the pressure on. you do not want to be entire clean -- entirely clear as to when. you do not want to give the other person a timetable for war. if they do an action that triggers an obvious response, but in a situation like this, we contain much more room to maneuver if we maintain some degree of strategic ambiguity, as the israelis are doing. it is important to point out, the iranians do not have a nuclear weapon. it is something worth pointing out today. not only do they not have nuclear weapons, but the supreme leader of iran has issued a religious edict saying it would not be wise to have them and the founder of the regime felt islamicon islamic -- un0- to have them. but a regime that relies on the legitimacy of religious edict, nobody is asking
